Here's what I've come up with, most have already been said before.
Nicholas Fury - Nick Fury Doctor Stephen Strange - Doc Strange The Old Man - Not Sure at this point The Winged Man - Warren Worthington/The Angel Ballad of the Fantastick/ Sir Reed - Fantastic Four/ Reed Richards Matthew Murdoch - Matt Murdock / Daredevil Peter Parquagh- Peter Parker / Spider-man Count Otto Von Doom - Gaiman has said he is an ancestor of Victor Von Doom /Dr. Doom Clea - Strange's Wife Grand Inquisitor - Mageneto, since the two with him are his "Witchbreed"/mutant children And since hs is the enemy of Javier Sister Wanda - Scarlet Witch Petros - Quicksilver Javier - Prof.Charles Xavier Virginia -- ?? Rojhaz - Steve Rodgers / CAPT. America. Since the only way you can have some one really representing an American, is a Native American Man in green who attacks Fury - Not sure. Scotius Summerisle -- Scott Summers / Cyclops, Robert Trefusis -- Bobby Drake / Iceman, John Grey -- Jean Grey / Pheonix (apparently disguising herslf as a man.) Capt. Nelson - Foggy Nelson |

Wow, I only caught about half of those... but my thought about Virginia was just that she wasn't a superhero at all, but rather Virginia Dare (the first person of Europrean descent to be born on North America). Because, she was from Roanoke, and she was referred to as "the first child born in the colonies".. er... yeah. So I figured she was just supposed to be the historical figure, and not a hero. But then she does have the white hair and she came up in the mirror was the "cause of the strange weather"... so maybe she's supposed to be Storm... also?
*shrug* And, I'm a female Neil fan who likes superhero comics but never actually reads them. (Or, I suppose I should say, very very rarely.) So most of my superhero knowledge is based on vague memories of childhood cartoons. (Or movies.) So... yes. ------------------------------ ~renata~ Press: Do you plan to record any anti-war songs?

Check out interview with colorist Richard Isanove, as well as links to Gaiman and artist Andy Kubert's interviews:

HI I was looking at my copy of 1602 and on the back in the bar code box it says "direct edition" what does that mean? Are there other editions?
Thanks  Ingrid |

That refers to buying a comic on the news stand vs in a comics shop. Both editions are the same except for that box, and both are considered exactly the same in price guides

Here's a link to a basic fan site I developed while experimenting with cascading style sheets, <div> overflow, and such:
http://www.shadowcatblue.com/1602/ The quality of the illustrations and coloring made it such that I didn't have to do any touch-ups to the image scans. Have Fun! http://www.shadowcatblue.com/1602/ |

A couple notes:
I don't have my copy here to verify it, but I remember thinking that the man in green who attacked Nick Fury looked an awful lot like The Vulture. Also: I had thought that the old inquisitor guy was Magneto, too, until I remembered that Magneto was Jewish. This may or may not be a hiccup, especially taking the race changes into consideration.

Although the Vision is easier to play off than Iron Man... he could be some sort of golem. -chuckles- Just a thought. Mike ======= I agree. I think it would be nice to have the Vision appear in the series as a Golem. |

Nice idea.... Vision is actually the body of the original Human Torch, the first character in the MU.... having him be a golem or a Frankenstien's monster type thing works perfectly.
Though Ben Grimm (the Thing) looks more like a golem, and his old rabbi even made the connection in a recent FF ish. Has Dr. Doom changed much? He's already a monarch of his own kingdom... armored... uses magic. All they need to do is tone down the science bit (which Waid did in the mainstream continutity) and he's set...

To me, "The Old Man" looks like The Ancient One, Dr. Strange's mentor from his comic book.
Virginia's blue eyes/white hair and linkage to the strange weather makes me think she is Storm. In the regular Marvel Universe, Foggy Nelson is Daredevil's friend and law partner. |

I love your username, Uatu. Hehe... i just had this image of him peering in on women's locker rooms, saying "i'm not interfering... i'm not interfering... i'm not interfering". Heck, that might be why its called the "blue area" of the moon...

Do you remember who wrote it? Sounds like Steve Gerber...

I could be wrong, but I seem to remember that it was a series of pieces from different artists and writers.

I meant that ish... i know WHAT IF was written by different writers.
I also think it should be revived with Marvel's current talent. Excelsior! ~~~~~~~~~ Join the Church of the Risen Morrison!

No no. I meant that issue too. It was an issue with a bunch of different joke "what if" scenarios, each being at most a couple pages long and each created by a different artist. I remember Humbeck(sp?) did "What if Aunt May were Ant Man?" and I think some writer who always wanted to draw submitted a completely black panel entitled "What if Black Panther and Cloak fought Shroud in an abandoned coal mine?"

I don't think that Viriginia is Storm due to the fact that she wasn't introduced before 1969.
